Great news! Nier: Automata's install size is no longer 7x bigger than it should be (it was 366 GB)
2B, times 183, plus G.
In a recent update, the popular RPG Nier: Automata experienced an unexpected increase in its download size, ballooning from a 50 GB base game to a whopping 366 GB. The issue, known as "puffer-fishification," left players baffled and frustrated, requiring a temporary workaround of deselecting DLC packages during installation. However, the developers have since resolved the problem, returning the game to its regular size.
While the exact cause of the size increase remains unknown, it's speculated that the base game files may have been mistakenly attached to each individual DLC package during the initial download process. Players can now once again enjoy the adventures of 2B and 9S without the need for extended downloads.
